Tēnā koe Stephen
Thank you for your Of icial Information Act (OIA) request to the Department of Conservation,
received on 16 January 2024 in which you asked for
‘all submitted Works Approval requests
and surrounding correspondence for Turoa Ski field from 1 August 2023.’
This letter is to advise you that we are extending the 20 working day period to respond to
your request, as allowed under section 15A(1) of the OIA. We require an additional 15
days
to respond to your request. We wil send you a response no later than 6 March 2024, earlier
if possible.
The extension of time is necessary as the consultations necessary to make a decision on the
request mean that a proper response to the request cannot reasonably be made within the
original time limit.
You have the right, under section 28(3) of the OIA to make a complaint to an Ombudsman
about the extension. If you wish to discuss this response to your request, please contact
[email address].
Nāku noa, nā
